Dave Ward from this months Voice....

In particular, the introduction of the shorter working week, has fallen behind schedule.
"We want this to be introduced as a credit by an agreed default date,"
Dave explained, adding that the lump sums are likely to be "reconfigured" and that "both parties are looking to ensure that real progress can be made on revisions.

On the contrary, I think that the payments and shorter working week will be administered without any revision at all and that those of us who have taken it up the arse for so long will be taking it again, whilst those who will not embrace change will benefit - and we know who has the least number of revisions don't we??? It's a case of winners and losers yet again and oddly enough it seems to be the same losers over and over again.
